KSU Insider Info: I graduated KSU in 2012 and have been working at KSU since. I hit tenure & am about to quit. Colleges/Universities & degrees are mostly scams. Unless you know unequivocally that you want to go into a specialized career field , ex: Doctor, Lawyer, Astronaught, etc., then you really don't need a degree. Roughly, 75% of jobs don't give two shits whether you have a degree or not & in whatever topic. They care about whether you're knowledgeable in the specific field & can do the job well while making them money. A degree requirement is primarily just a way to try to ensure that an applicant has a certain level of intelligence, work ethic, & professionalism. That's all. But what's worse, Colleges/Universities artificially impose degree restrictions for working at those same Colleges/Universities. For example -- You MUST have at least a Master's degree in order to be considered & hired as a Faculty member. It doesn't matter if you have 35+ years of experience, are universally considered the world's most renowned expert in a specific field or topic, or were personally recommended by the President of the United States. You will NEVER be hired as a faculty member unless you got that piece of paper proving you "did your time." Lastly, staff employees are thought of & treated like bottom-of-the-barrel garbage high school-aged kids working part-time jobs. They're overworked, highly underpaid, & unrecognized. Even * IF * you were to hit tenure, you'd only get 10% of your highest earning salary every year for the rest of your life once you hit retirement age (67). For staff, this is roughly $350 p/ month in retirement benefits. Faculty, on the other hand, are treated like royalty solely because they make colleges/university’s money & earn them prestige. Guess what we get when retiring. A cheap paper certificate and a $5 gift card to our university bookstore. In recent years, under President Pamela Whitten, KSU got rid of numerous support departments and significantly cut back on student activities and events. Don’t go here. -_-. Sincerely, a disgruntled employee who KSU doesn’t give a single shit about.
should've described why a student should or shouldn't go there if they want a quality education. sounds more like you're telling people that college is a waste of time and money and they treat their employees badly which doesn't really matter if someone already wants to go to college. describe the student life, teachers, on campus housing etc
what worries people is not what you described but the school hired a unprofessional staff that is crying here and the fact that this dude is suspiciously self-claimed "tenured".
U deserve millions subscribers .
Love Alex’s energy, I’ll have what he’s having.
hootie hoo go owls!

What it is. Go professional or do a trade job. Don't go for staff jobs. Mkay
